#135 Support season and episode metadata tag

[Nenad Grbic]

Can you please add support for season and episode tags in nfo metadata..
Right now when browsing episodes in season folder we see:
Example (Game of Thrones season 7)

Dragonstone
Stormborn
The Queen's Justice
The Spoils of War
We dont know what episodes we are looking at

With new tags we will se

S7E1 Dragonstone
S7E2 Stormborn
S7E3 The Queen's Justice
S7E4 The Spoils of War

<season>1</season>
<episode>4</episode>

This has been requested before. For patch ideas, see:

I dont know how to patch or to "build from source" i tried to install from source and i had many errors..
i'm not very tech person
I will wait for jmaggard if he want to implement this.. if he can it will be great
i installed latest version from debian backports.. i'm on raspberry pi 3 running dietpi (raspbian) os

This is implemented in master now. You can set season and episode in the nfo files, and sort by upnp:episodeNumber. We'll also try to glean the season and episode numbers from filenames if they're not set in an nfo file.

Also, check the upated man page for how to force sort on clients that do their own alphanumeric sorting.

Hey, thanks for the update..
Can i make one more request if it's possible
Is it possible to if nfo is present with season and episode tags to add those numbers when video file is displayed on client?

Right now episodes look like this:

Dragonstone
Stormborn
The Queen's Justice
The Spoils of War

is it possible to look like this:?

S7E1 Dragonstone
S7E2 Stormborn
S7E3 The Queen's Justice
S7E4 The Spoils of War

or maybe just with added numbers without S and E letters if its easier?

0701 Dragonstone
0702 Stormborn
0703 The Queen's Justice
0704 The Spoils of War

Thanks
